    Megs dub tire shine

    Did a early morning detail. I did want to try the megs DUB tire shine just for sake of trying it. $5/can at advanced auto. Also did the engine and finished it with SONUS MOTOR KOTE. And amped up the protection with a final dry of PRIMA WAX AS U DRY. (Still my fav spray wax product).

    Yes, the DUB tire shine is glossy to say the least. Application was a breeze. SOWA. It did leave a even finish. Agree, a bit more bling than i am use to for tires. All tho i get a high shine out of opti bond too. Yea, the orange crush scent is great but not over powering.

    After sitting it does dry. Not overly glossy i would say. Now on the way to work i will be looking at SLING if any.

    *EPIC FAIL* in the sling dept! Tires look good, but after that drive the sling was really bad. So i really cant rate this a good product.

    Re: Megs dub tire shine

    For sure. I might try the TW endura shine tire coating everyone is raving about.

    TO BE FAIR..I did not wipe down the tires after application. That could have made a difference in the sling? But it is stated as a SOWA product. Never had sling with stoners that is a similar product.

    I had a feeling it would sling. That is why the only Meguiar`s aerosol I use is ultimate black tire coating.

    Do the instructions say to wipe it down post application? Because if they don`t, you have nothing to apologize for. Sorry you have sling all over your ride now!!! Stinks.

    Step #3 does indeed state WIPE OFF EXCESS,AS NEEDED. So a wipe down or lighter coat could have prevented the sling? On a side note we got some rain yesterday, and it held it`s own. I was thinking this stuff would probably do wheel wells justice.

    On a side note i picked up some MEGS ULTIMATE BLACK TIRE COATING to play with. This got a good review from THE GUZ. I will do a review on this when i apply it.

    Meguiar`s DUB Tire Shine:

    Sadly I bought a can of this tire gloss and the sling is probably the worset I`ve even experienced. I applied the product to just one front tire and the entire side of the vehicle was covered with sling a day later. There was even sling on the rear wheel!

    Re: Megs dub tire shine

    I haven`t used a product for a long time that had any sling.

    Meguiar`s Tire Gel (the grape stuff) has sort of become my default product. Longevity is very good so I`m not forced to re-apply every week following the wash.
